Version 4.1.038 and version 5 problem
Posted: Sun May 29, 2011 11:56 pm
Hi,
I've used my TrackIR 4 for years with no problem on XP. I upgraded to Windows 7 and now I have a problem with the head tracking. Tracking seems to work fine as long as I don't use 'heads'. But when I tick the 'heads' box, I get an unhandled error message causing trackIR to freeze up. Then, the 'heads' window pops up without showing the heads at all. Then, I must click on an X in the heads window causing the whole program to shut down.
To get past this problem I uninstalled 4.1.038 and installed the latest version of 5. This won't run at all when I click on the shortcut.
I've tinkered with compatibility options but nothing has changed.
I can live without the heads, but it was my preferred way of seeing where I was and how well it was working.
